What makes me to consider?

• Processor
• Size
• Ram
• HDD

What makes me worry? :S

• Brand (never thought of considering Lenovo, I always prefer to buy Dell or HP)
• Reliability
• Built in Body (reviews says, its plastic body, I would prefer metal body so that hand swatting would handled well)
• Not sure, does it have Wi-Fi or not?

Friends Plz help on the below queries

1. 802.11 b/g/n …. Is it belonging to Wi-Fi
2. Is it Good deal?
3. What is HD Glare display? Is it next / below level to HD display ? How is it difference with HD display?
4. What is DVD recordable (Dual layer)? What is Dual layer, in which way it helps me? Does it do DVD writing?
5. HD Graphics 3000 (HDMI) what does it mean?
